Radioanatomy of rhinopharyngeal carcinoma

Rhinopharyngeal cancer is one of the best indications for conformal radiotherapy with modulated intensity. Due to the high dose gradient, accurate delineation of target volumes and organs at risk is a critical success factor with this technology. This requires a good knowledge of rhinopharyngeal rad...

Zusammenfassung:Rhinopharyngeal cancer is one of the best indications for conformal radiotherapy with modulated intensity. Due to the high dose gradient, accurate delineation of target volumes and organs at risk is a critical success factor with this technology. This requires a good knowledge of rhinopharyngeal radioanatomy and optimal imaging techniques.
